Any qualified groomer would not make such an ordeal for the dog I would have clipped it all off given the owner a big bill and an earful.
So long since you were on the board I cannot remember if you are qualified or not if you are have you never used matt breakers?

Hi Everyone
Havn’t been on for a while been sooo busy, hope you are all well.
I have a question regarding a dog i went to groom last week. It was a cocker spaniel with some huge matts on its tummy and behind its front legs. I spent nearly 2 1/2 hours trying to remove them with combs and scissors but didnt manage to get rid of them all and i was getting concerned the dog was getting stressed out. I agreed with the owner i would come back and have another go and then finish his cut. I have not been grooming long and am just stuck on what to do to get rid of these matts ??? :-\ any idea would be great.
Thanks 🙂
